Comment

Very good article that passes all criteria except being incomplete. What are these guys doing today. That section is missing. The relation to Hamas should be expanded because of recent events in Gaza. Wandalstouring (talk) 18:48, 14 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

They virtually don't exist today, namely because the major organizations have been molded into the Palestinian Authority. However, there are still tiny non-Islamist groups that continue to participate in fighting against Israel. I will start the section now (or very soon, once I gather some sources), but it will mainly discuss how they have been replaced by Islamist groups and the PA. There have been no fedayeen attacks really, in the post-Second Intifada period, mostly replaced by rocket and mortar attacks from Gaza. Also, could you list the points of POV in the article so that I could eliminate them ASAP? --Al Ameer son (talk) 19:01, 14 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Done. It and the Second Intifada subsection could be expanded, but there is little substance for info on fedayeen activities in the 2000s, even the 1990s as they're role has been largely eclipsed by the PNA and Islamists. I think I'm going to merge the sections since they are in the same time frame and technically the second Intifada is not over. --Al Ameer son (talk) 07:10, 15 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
